    Is there any addon that might be used to..

    I am basically seeking a easy, and I really do mean -easy- to install addon, that can make my screen look prettier.

    I am currently using the standard from the actual game, but my brother has many nice addons, and his screen undoubtedly looks nicer than mine.

    Thanks for any help.

    There are lots of different UI packages.

    I personally don't use any of them, I customize my own, but i've seen a few of them and some look pretty nice.

    TukUI or ElvUI are quite popular total conversion UI mods. Real easy to install, real easy to manage.

    try Tuk UI (tukui.org), or other UIs at wowinterface.com (look at download size, if ui is more than 5mb in size - it contains many addons. otherwise it will be single-addon ui)
    i can recommend The Thunder UI or Qulight UI (my favorite ones)

    Are these easy to use, I am mainly seeking one I can install and *poof* as if by magic it looks nice.

    I am not so technical.

    Well you can have a look on Curse's UI packages!
    I personally use ElvUi http://www.curse.com/addons/wow/elvui

    Kinda of a very open question given the numerous different ways one can style their UI to their own desires.
    As mention TukUI / ElvUI are probably the easiest to setup.

    But you can browse some of the ones on wowinterface http://www.wowinterface.com/downloads/cat28.html

    or even curse to get a some preview.

    Each of the packs should include the needed addons to be used in their download, though outside of Tuk / Elv they will require some tweaking to get right.

    It will probably take some experimenting and playing around to find one you truly like, and learn exactly what each addon is doing.

    backup your addon folder and wtf folder somewhere before changing to make it easier to revert everything back to what you currently have setup mod wise.

    Yeah, you pretty much put em in your AddOns folder and they're good to go. There's a few options you can tinker around with if you want to customize to your own preference (I for one use TukUI and have moved around the various numbers at the bottom to show what I'm more interested in) but the default look of it is more than enough for anyone.

    I am personally using custom made UI on my shaman and LUI on my priest however setting up LUI for your needs can be quite a pain for some1 w/o experiences with addons altho there is lot of guides how to set it up on the internet.

    as others said ElvUI is pretty nice too, and if you like your bros UI why not to ask him to set it on your PC too? I am sure he will happily help you if you don't want to play with the ugly basic UI anymore

    TukUI needs some configuration from the user,
    ElvUI (originally a tukui clone) is much easier to setup out of the box.

    I managed to get the addon working

    I am now officially best pleased and no longer using a generic UI *happy*

    Thanks for the help all.

    Should also be said that (although this is subjective) Elv looks better. I just prefer Tuk for it's extremely clean look. It gives me what I want and need.
